More than 1,000 of the leading researchers in artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics have today signed and published an open letter calling for a ban on offensive autonomous weapons, also known colloquially as “killer robots”.

The need to find wireless communications technology that is reliable, easy to use, secure and also, cost-effective for use in Human Machine Interfaces (HMI), programming, service/maintenance and real-time control tasks.

Problem: The presence of harmonics in electrical systems means that current and voltage are distorted and deviate from sinusoidal waveforms adding strain on electrical networks. This can lead to the potential damage of – often crucial and costly – equipment.
